Not my ideal choice. Sunak may be the one for the MPs but the party faithful won't got for him. I know where my vote is going.

Sunak is too much like Tony Blair, Truss for me
20.27. Lol Tony .
Same old same old.A bribe to reduce tax forget them.At least Sunak is telling the truth.
Ideal candidate to help heal a ruptured party.
If it is Truss then Labour will be delighted :). Tory death spiral continues apace.... i wonder how many of us they will take down with them!
Paigntonian. Who wielded the knife ? Did you not see the high profile Tories that opted to resign, thus encouraging others to follow their example in haste, and likely to repent at leisure ?
Billionaire Sunak wants to be the 'top banana' without starting at the bottom of the bunch; all his 'friends' are in the world of banking & high finance, he gets their support because is an advocate of digital banking which is unmentioned, - watch out!

He is a creepy, snake in the grass, who sat next to Boris at a cabinet meeting as though all things were quite normal & the following day suddenly produced the absurd biographical CV of himself replete with photos of himself from childhood onwards, as a pitch to replace Boris.

I wouldn't have chosen either of these two to be leaders of the Conservative party, but given no other choice, it has to be Liz Truss.

Do you mean digital currency, Khandro?

it was in response to william at 16:08, essentially every poll in the party has Sunak losing to any of the other candidates. I am in the party and the jungle drums are clear, if you are a betting person get your money on Truss. Now it's possible that she does something stupid before the voting slips are sent out or he does something good but currently, to use the horse racing vernacular, Truss wins 10 minutes.
Thanks TTT. It matters not who wins really. The ultimate result will be the same.
Truss 4/6 Sunak 5/4
But...but...she's an idiot.

//Same old same old.A bribe to reduce tax forget them.At least Sunak is telling the truth.//

No, there are different economic strategies. Very simply the two being advocated here are tax high and pay of debts which has a tendency to suppress the economy and the other is to reduce taxes, encourage spending and keep the economy buoyant.

There are other schools of thought, perhaps go and have a look at how economies work?

douglas: "But...but...she's an idiot. " - well you've got one....!
TTT, can you tell me if those 'in the party', yourself included, will vote for Truss simply because of Sunak's resignation, or because they agree with her policy of tax cuts and borrowing the money to finance them?
//yep whoever wins wipes the floor with Sir Beer Korma at the next election! //

More likely give him a glimpse of the mop bucket whilst they spend years trying to bandage their damaged feet.
//and the other is to reduce taxes, encourage spending and keep the economy buoyant//
Or to to put it another way, for "keep the economy buoyant" read "stoke inflation even more"
Sort of sums it up from the BBC coverage of front pages.

The Daily Mirror's Kevin Maguire says the contest is "made in heaven" for Labour. He describes Ms Truss as "a vacuous chancer who would be out of her depth in a puddle" and Mr Sunak as "the moneybags chancellor who hiked taxes to 1940s levels, while his family avoided their fair share".

Utterly dire.

You live in fantasy land. The best candidates were ditched.
From the BBC again.

According to the i newspaper, there is a great deal of anger among Conservative Party members that Penny Mordaunt didn't make it into the final two. The paper says it has spoken to a number Conservative association chairmen in England and Wales and many of them feel the party's chances of winning the next election will be damaged with either Ms Truss or Mr Sunak at the helm.

It’s obvious the public will see them as Johnson clones and there’ll be a hung parliament at the GE, even seasoned Tories and political commentators agree on that.
